Former Duke wide receiver Mehki Wall, who caught six passes for 38 yards as a freshman last season, committed to NCCU on Wednesday.

Former Duke wide receiver Mehki Wall found his next home.

On Wednesday, the former Blue Devil announced through social media that he committed to North Carolina Central for his next collegiate stop.

Wall caught six passes for 38 yards as a redshirt freshman last season. Five of those receptions came against Virginia on November 18, when he racked up 36 yards and caught his only collegiate touchdown thus far.

As a high school recruit, the 5-foot-9 North Carolina native was a three-star prospect and the No. 86 receiver in the Class of 2022.

Wall is one of seven Blue Devils to venture into the transfer portal since the Blue & White Game. He entered the portal on April 24.

None of the other six recent transfers have found a new school yet. Wall is one of two Duke receivers to enter the portal in the last two weeks along with former teammate Apollos Cook.

Wall, a three-star prospect from the Class of 2022, was the second Blue Devil to enter the portal on Wednesday. Redshirt freshman Ethan Hubbard threw his name to the market earlier that day.

Last season, as a redshirt freshman, Wall hauled in six passes for 38 yards. He caught his first collegiate touchdown against Virginia on November 18, when he recorded five of his six career catches for 36 yards.

Even without Wall, the Blue Devils had 13 other receivers on their 2024 spring football roster. Star wideout Jordan Moore caught a long touchdown from new quarterback Maalik Murphy during Saturday’s spring game, and graduate student Eli Pancol hauled in a one-handed catch during spring practice.

Whether he addresses the receiver position or not, first-year head coach Manny Diaz said that the Blue Devils would pick up more players in the transfer portal before the season begins.
